Content
Web engineering comprises the application of systematic, disciplined and quantifiable approaches to the cost-effective development and evolution of high-quality, large-scale applications in the WorldWideWeb. This course covers the underlying technologies and introduces techniques for the design of these applications from a software engineering perspective. Furthermore, it provides a categorization of web-based applications and introduces tools supporting the complete development and maintenance life cycle.
- Technologies, protocols, and standards
- Categories of applications
- Requirements analysis and systems design
- Web application development processes and design methodologies
- Web application frameworks and component-based Web Engineering
- Integration with legacy systems
- Managing system evolution, deployment, and maintenance
- Testing, verification and validation techniques
- Web metrics, performance specification and evaluation
- Tools supporting design, implementation and monitoring
